OBITUARY.

SwoRDEN.-Evert Sworden was born Oct.
%. 1870, died Nov. 18th, 1887. aged II years
and l6 days. He leaves mother, one brother
and six sisters to mourn his departure.
Dear Evert thou hast left ne, and thy lesswe deep
ly feel,
But tits God that has beref us, He will all our sor
rows heal,
Oh sweet as vernal dews, that fill the closing buds,
On lions hill when evening clouds drew thithcr 80
sweet, 30 heavenly tits to see,
The members Of one family, live peacefully to-
gether.
The children like the lilly flowers, on which decend
the sun and showers,
Their hues of beauty blending the parents like the
willow boughs, on which the lovely foliage
grows, the friendly shade extending.
Bntleaves the greenest will decay, and flowers the
brightest fade away, when autumn winds are
sweeping.
And be the household ere so fair the hand of death
win soon be there, and turn the happy scenes
to weeping.
Yet leaves again will cloth the tree and lilies wave
beneath the breeze, when spring comes smiling
hither,
And friends who part at the tomb, may renew their
loveliest bloom,
And meet In Heaven together %.*

peath Of DR.. H. II. Sheffield.

After an illness Of but few days duration,
Mrs. DR.. Hulda II. Sheffield passed from this
life into the great hereafter at about 10
O'Clock on last Saturday morning. The DIR.
first complained of not feeling well on the
Saturday previous to her death, but was up
and around attending to her professional
calls. She continued to get worse and
called in DR.. Hunter, and on Friday Dr.
Lungren, of Toledo, was summoned in con-
sultation with DR.. Hunter, when the case was
pronounced peritonitis of the worst kind,
with no hope Of the patients recovery. She
fingered until Saturday morning, when death
relieved her from all earthly suffering. al
though all was done for her that loving
hearts and hands could do. Mrs. Sheffield
was an old citizen of this county, and had
quite an extensive homeopathic practice in
and around Napoleon. She was the widow
Of the late VIM. Sheffield, and leaves one
child, the wife Of Col. J. D. Norton, now Of
Kansas. At the time of her death she was in
the 9th year Of her age. Her funeral took
place from her residence on Tuesday morn
ing, the services being conducted by Rev.
Philip B. Cabell, of Cleveland, a New Chur ch
minister. The remains we're followed to
their last resting place by many relatives
and friends.

EVERY Lady in the Land"

Ought to read Godey's Lady Book for De-
cember. The year 1877 has been a great
year with this popular magazine, and the
closing number of the year is the best of all,
both in its literary matter and its illustra-
tions. This number opens with a very read
able sketch of the editor, Mrs. Croly. A
valuable assortment Of Christmas reading
follows, comprising everything from Christ
mas dinner to Christmas love stories. Fash
ions for the season have their ample share,
with practical and tasteful illustrations. In
poetry, home hints, correspondence, and the
miscellaneous reading which makes this
magazine so acceptable, there is charming
variety. For 1883 great inducements are Of
fered. with wonderful things in premiums
and other advantages. Our young friends
should grasp the opportunity of making
something out of clubs and premiums. The
circulation of this favorite old monthly,
already deservedly large, is rapidly increas-
ing. tits pushing its way by the solid merit
of the literary attractions offered. The
Croly Publishing Co., Philadelphia, Pa. ,
will promptly respond to all inquiries.
Write at once.

Our lady friends who are looking around
to see what magazine they wish to subscribe
for next year should see Demorests Monthly
for December, which is just out. It certain
ly is in the front of family magazines, and
seems to combine dozen magazines in one,
SO varied is the information it contains.
Any lady possessing this valuable publica-
tion cannot fail to kesp house well. Il she
follows its suggestions. It not only gives
full information on household matters, but
furnishes light as well as solid reading. One
Of it's late attractions is to give each month
portrait and q sketch of the life of one Of
the State Presidents of W. @. 7. U. That
for December is Mrs. Mary Towne Burt, of
New York State. In fact, Demorest's is a
magazine that every lady of refinement
should possess. It is beautifully gotten up,
and its price, 50 per year, puts it within the
reach of all. Published by w. Jennings De-
morest, 15 East 14th street, New York.

A Busy Place.

One of the busyest places we have lately
visited is Saur & Balsley's Drug and Book
House. They are not only crowded with
customers anxious to secure some of the rare
bargains which they are offering now, but
are very busily engaged in receiving large
quantities of goods direct from the manu-
facturer, nice, new, fresh and pure, marking
and arranging them for the inspection OF
their numerous customers, which we know
will be well pleased to see the many new
things and the rare bargains which are there
offered. The stock for late fall and winter
trade was never half SO large and so bsauti-
full as it is this year. 1t needs really to be
seen and examined before it can ever be
appreciated. Don't fail to call at this hous
when in town and look around over the
stock, see what is to be seen and learn what
is to be learned.

Says an exchange: A pitcher of cold

sorb all the gasses with which the room is

how important such publication is for the
health of the family, or indeed understand
